Pittsburgh PA Rat ride

[Floyd]

Some of us Burgh guys have been talking about a ride in the city. The Date looks like Sunday, June 27th. Starting point has been suggested as 18th St park, and time hasn't been discussed, so I'm gonna throw Noonish out there.

I live North of the City, So I need the downtown guys to confirm all this.

So whataya say Ratbikers...... Youns In?

I would prefer a little later start time , I plan on being out late the night before

 

[dogdart]

Southside Riverfront Park , is the official name . I vote for a 1:00 start .

 

[racedoug33]

1:00 sounds good to me. I think a couple people from bike-pgh.com are comming too.

 

[Floyd]

Sounds good. 1 PM is it. Southside Riverfront Park. Can I get a link to the bike-pgh thread please?

Good link up. Sounds like we'll have a few there. Any decent stops on the trail for a Cold one?

 

[racedoug33]

There are some around the South Side works and East Carson St. is mostly all bars. We could go to OTB(over the bars) Cafe too, its a bicycle themed bar.

We had a great ride!!! Met cool people, lots of bikes and good times had by all. Thank you everyone for comming, we will have to plan another ride soon.

OTB Cafe for a drink

No part of our ride but he was on the trail.

That was a good time! Boardmembers Racedoug33, Dogdart, and Floyd (me) were all there, Dogdarts kids joined the ride and one of his friends showed up and I brought a friend from my town, and we had had a guy ride in from Crafton. Some of us hung at the Over The Bar cafe afterward, which is a bicycle themed bar. Phil and his lady from OH showed up at the cafe with his very cool Colorflow and her folder for a brief ride. All in all, a very good time. We'll be doin this again this summer......so be there!!
